I won’t be going anywhere near an electric car till we build a nuclear power plant or until they give me €30000 to downgrade my present vehicle.

If my car wasn't goin next year to the NTA's pile in the sky I'd be hanging on to it but I'll take their 20k(ifn they offer it)....the missus thought she was getting a free,well maintained, top o the range,high mileage Prius.....well,she might well yet!!
I agree with the nuclear bit,if we're serious about goin electric,wind and solar or wave ain't gonna provide the energy we need to meet the unrealistic targets for even 2030,we'll be buried financially by EU fines by then!!

I think you can keep your old heap under the new rules but you only get half a grant (or something like that).  Could be a handy Valentine's gift for your missus.  Give her the spare wheel from the Prius and tell her she can have the rest of the car in a few months when you're finished with it  :P

Half the grant is 10 large. You could buy 16.27 11 year old clapped out ex-taxi priuseyes for that kinda loot.

Hey Watty did you get any extra for the Skoda you scrapped off the breakers?

I put my details into an online scrapper and they offered me only €350.Just used it again using a different county and it offered me €192.Dunno how they calculate it.
Title: Re: Lads Away Day
Post by: watty on February 11, 2022, 05:44:45 pm
Think it was somewhere between €250-300 & they collected it for free.  Other places wanted me to deliver it or they would charge for collection.  Considering it was dead, I only had one choice really.

Ah ok thanks if I cant get a decent price I'll cut out the Catalytic converter amd pull the battery and flog them separately.

It does seem like an awful waste though.Not all ex taxis are fit for the crusher.

She actually wants a Toyota CHR....and her tits reduced...wimmin, they want it all,I hope she gets the CHR though!!

Is that electric as well?

Yee'll have hours of fun smugly looking at your ESB meter spinning like an old 78 vinyl record whilst munching on your window box salads... with Barry Manilow waiting for the MP3 player to charge.
